Teachers’ Learning Empowerment for Enhancing Students’ Positive Thinking Skills

Abstract

This research introduces an innovative initiative titled "Online Self-Training Program for Empowering Teachers' Learning to Strengthen their Students' Positive Thinking Skills." The program aims to enhance teachers' professional development and promote positive thinking skills among students. 1. Enhancing Teachers' Knowledge: The first component focuses on providing educators with a thorough understanding of positive thinking skills through well-structured learning modules based on authoritative literature. Topics include the definition, significance, and practical strategies for fostering positive thinking in the classroom. 2. Applying Knowledge for Student Success: The second component enables teachers to implement the acquired knowledge to enhance students' positive thinking skills. A rigorous one-group pretest-posttest experimental design was employed, involving eight teachers and 26 students. The findings are significant, with the program meeting the established criteria of 90/90 and showing marked improvement in post-test scores. This confirms the initiative's effectiveness as a valuable resource for educational settings. Ultimately, this program fosters a culture of positivity and resilience among students.
